What's going on here? This site is running a quick set of scripts I whipped up for which I have not found a title yet. It aggregates my Twitter, Flickr, Muxtape, blog. More services should follow.
It's sort of like FriendFeed, or Jaiku, but on my own personal server. I wrote a post about it and you can download the source.

Trying out note sharing functionality
Does anyone remember a few months ago, when I wrote about Ben Stein? No? Here, then, I'll jog your memory. Ben Stein and his involvment in that piece of cinematic excrement Expelled! "inspired" me to--if you'll excuse the term--resurrect a certain recurring character from the very early days of this blog. Yes, I'm talking about the ever-dreaded Hitler Zombie, who returned after more than a year's absence to take a huge chomp out of Ben Stein's brain.
Now we're seeing the results of that chomp, and I'm not just talking about the ridiculous claims in Expelled! that "Darwinism" leads inevitably to Nazi-ism and the Holocaust. No, according to Stein, it's not just Darwinism that leads to Nazi-ism that leads to the gas chambers and ovens. Get a load of what Ben Stein has said explicitly in an interview with Paul Crouch on the Trinity Broadcasting Network:
Stein: When we just saw that man, I think it was Mr. [PZ] Myers, talking about how great scientists were, I was thinking to myself the last time any of my relatives saw scientists telling them what to do they were telling them to go to the showers to get gassed....
Stein (speaking about the Holocaust): ...that was horrifying beyond words, and that's where science -- in my opinion, this is just an opinion -- that's where science leads you.
Crouch: That's right.
Stein: ... Love of God and compassion and empathy leads you to a very glorious place, and science leads you to killing people.
That's right. To Stein, it's not just evolution (or, as he likes to call it, "Darwinism") that leads to the gas chambers. It's science itself. Words fail me to describe the depths of stupid that Stein plumbs here. "The stupid, it burns" and the many variants of it that I like to use are all far too impotent a condemnation of such ignorance.
